Yea, this "Skype ban" in Russia and Europe is getting out of hand. I've heard rumors that it's not just Skype, but other video calling apps like Zoom and WhatsApp are in the crosshairs too. Has to be a major conspiracy theory, or what?
"Dude, Russian gov's been known to censor stuff, but Skype's a pretty big target, if they succeed I bet MS will just find another way to comply, just like they have with other countries' rules."
